Decent Auto Transmission Specialists Brisbane (or Toowoomba)

[rabs_33gtst]

Hey guys my R33 GTST Series 1, 4speed Auto gearbox has shat itself out in the middle of bum*&k nowhere! It was bound to happen sooner or later as the car has been slightly modified (pod, boost t (12psi), intercooler, bov, exhaust etc), but nothing too mad and it was the stock 4speed auto (145,000km). I need to know some decent auto specialists in either brisbane (or toowoomba at the worst) as i will be getting the car freighted back asap after boxing day. Need someone to look at it pretty quickly so i can get it assessed and quoted, as i will be heading away for work on the 30th of december and hopefully get the work done while im away! Oh and p.s any recommendations on whether a reconed, strengthened 4speed would be the best (not cheap) quick fix, because i dont have the cash or time atm to attempt a manual conversion?

Any help would be awsome,

Cheers Brendan

ive heard west side are pretty decent.

my box recently shit itself.

i found the cheapest option was buying another auto box and put that in.

if you look around people usually sell them for $200ish if you get lucky.

It then cost me $796 to have my old trans removed, shift kitted valvebody removed and cleaned and swapped into new transmission and new transmission installed.

so $1000 all up.

would be cheaper without all the valvebody messing around

This work was done by bob grant autos in coorparoo.

guys seemed pretty decent. try and speak to gary if you can though. he always seemed more helpful.

Yep +1 for Westside diffs and gearboxes at Sumner Park, he knows his shit and gives good service.

Was that $595+ GST drive-in-drive-out with service? I'm looking at getting my R34 shift kitted and service, and probably upgrade the transmission cooler. I work in Coopers Plains so something a bit more local is definitely ideal.
